Upon hearing Song Yun’s somewhat suggestive remarks, Liu Ruoxi finally felt that Song Yun was a bit of a talent. Being able to divide a simple meal into foreplay, main course, and conclusion—what else could that be but talent? Song Yun noticed the curiosity in Liu Ruoxi’s eyes, and boastfully said, "I once had a kind of spice in the Middle East..." For the next five minutes or so, Song Yun talked about the delicacies he had tasted around the world during his time as a mercenary—curry from India, beef from Japan, pastries from Europe, and barbecue from Brazil. Under Song Yun’s eloquent descriptions, these dishes were vividly presented before Liu Ruoxi’s eyes. Initially, Liu Ruoxi was just listening casually, but unexpectedly, Song Yun’s words were so captivating that in just about five minutes, Liu Ruoxi felt incredibly hungry. "Actually, when I mentioned foreplay, it’s not really about some entwining between men and women, nor am I teasing you!" Song Yun said seriously. "It’s just that, to me, eating should really be divided into these steps. Don’t you feel extremely hungry now? Aren’t you eager to eat?" "A little." Liu Ruoxi nodded. "That’s exactly it. When your body shows a craving for food, eating becomes a form of enjoyment. We don’t eat just to fill our stomachs; the act of eating is an enjoyable process—a delicious enjoyment, a transition from emptiness and loneliness to richness and fullness!" Song Yun explained. Everything Song Yun said before was quite alright, but this last statement was slightly ambiguous. However, Liu Ruoxi had somewhat gotten used to Song Yun’s speaking style and didn’t feel any aversion, just listening to Song Yun talking there. Just as Song Yun finished his foreplay, dishes were brought up one by one. Holding rice in one hand and chopsticks in the other, Song Yun said, "Next up is the main event. Eating isn’t just about putting food into your mouth and chewing it. It’s not that simple." "Then what should it be? Do I have to eat it with my nostrils instead?" Liu Ruoxi joked with Song Yun with a smile. Song Yun laughed, "If you want to, you could, though your windpipe shouldn’t be blocked, of course." "I don’t want to." Liu Ruoxi shook her head. "Eating starts with smelling the aroma." Song Yun picked up a piece of meat, put it in front of his nose, sniffed it, and said, "The fragrance of food can greatly stimulate your saliva secretion. This way, when you start eating, you’ll have plenty of saliva in your mouth to digest the food, which is very good for your body!" "Got it!" Liu Ruoxi followed Song Yun’s example, picked up a piece of vegetable, and sniffed it. Because of the earlier foreplay, Liu Ruoxi was already feeling quite hungry. Now, after smelling this dish’s aroma, Liu Ruoxi just felt her entire mouth was full of saliva. "Okay, and then you eat." Song Yun put the meat into his mouth and said, "You need to chew thoroughly to fully appreciate the aroma of the food, and make sure not to forget taking a bite of rice." As he spoke, Song Yun took a bite of rice and then, while chewing, said, "This sense of fullness is really wonderful." It was Liu Ruoxi’s first time eating . Following Song Yun’s actions, Liu Ruoxi also took a bite of rice and started chewing slowly. For some reason, Liu Ruoxi found the food and the rice tasted really good! "Alright, follow these steps while eating, and you’ll find that eating is one of the most wonderful things in life, apart from the clapping of love!" In the course of Song Yun’s long monologue, the meal was quickly finished. Liu Ruoxi was so content that she almost wanted to pat her belly and burp, but maybe for the sake of maintaining her image, she just sat in an upright and proper posture. "Next comes the conclusion." Song Yun said with a smile to Liu Ruoxi. "After eating, the conclusion involves quite a few things, like burping, lighting a cigarette, or drinking a few cups of tea. These are all conclusion activities that give you a feeling of being like an immortal." "I’ll skip that," Liu Ruoxi said, shaking her head. "Now that we’ve eaten, let’s discuss the contract instead." "No, no, the conclusion is also very important!" Song Yun said. "Would you like it if, after clapping love with a man, he immediately fell asleep? The low point after reaching the peak is very uncomfortable. At this time, what we need to do is to chat nicely with the other person after this event, discussing things like the feeling just now or issues of posture. Of course, I’m talking about on the bed. Right now, after we’ve eaten, the conclusion is equally necessary because it’s a sign of respect for the ingredients!" "Well, I don’t smoke or drink tea that much," Liu Ruoxi said. "I occasionally drink coffee." "That works too. Sipping coffee really has its nuances!" Song Yun said, raising his hand to call a waiter and ordered two cups of Blue Mountain coffee. Before long, the coffee was brought up. "Do you know how to properly taste coffee?" Song Yun asked, holding the coffee cup by its handle with his thumb and forefinger. "Isn’t it just drinking it? Or maybe holding it in your mouth for a few seconds to savor it?" Liu Ruoxi also held her coffee cup, looking puzzled at Song Yun. "That’s the amateur’s way of drinking it. You guys are just wasting coffee that way," Song Yun said. "A true coffee-tasting requires this method! When you drink coffee, don’t let the entire coffee fill your mouth. You need to sip it from the cup into your mouth, of course without using a straw. Like me!" With that, Song Yun picked up a small spoon, scooped a spoonful of coffee, brought it close to his mouth, and sipped it. The air, along with the coffee, was sucked into Song Yun’s mouth, making the slurping sound similar to when sipping noodles. "Hey, you’re doing it... so... so" Liu Ruoxi looked at Song Yun slurping a few times, then holding the coffee in his mouth and continuing to inhale, making the coffee in his mouth continue to make the slurping sound, and felt a little embarrassed, wanting to speak but hesitated.

Doing it this way allows the aroma of the coffee to spread thoroughly in your mouth. You can check online if you don’t believe me. I’m not lying to you. Ah, drinking coffee this way, it really tastes much better!" Liu Ruoxi half-doubtfully asked, "Is it really like that?" "Of course it’s true!" Song Yun affirmed confidently.
